This month marked the beginning of Blume Global’s support of Hapag-Lloyd’s global network of carrier partners. Hapag-Lloyd’s selection was confirmed earlier in December with a start date in January starting in North America to ensure that high-quality, door-to-door service capabilities were provided for its partners.

Known for being a global leader for shipping companies, Hapag-Lloyd boasts a fleet of 231 container ships, of which include competitively modern reefer containers that require expert handling and a level of visibility and partner connectivity that goes beyond the basics.

“Blume Logistics will help improve the quality of our door service for our customers including first and last-mile visibility while enhancing the efficiencies of our motor carrier partners”, said Uffe Ostergaard, President of Hapag-Lloyd North America Region. “Our North American customers are asking for enhanced end-to-end shipment visibility to better manage their supply chains and by implementing this integrated cloud-based solution we will be able to offer that value-added service.”

Blume Global will manage a streamlined connection for Hapag-Lloyd’s motor carrier partners, enabling digital and hassle-free capabilities for dispatch work orders, drayage rates, appointment scheduling, accessorial charges, live tracking, proof of delivery, invoicing and robust reporting.

“Blume Logistics helps companies successfully manage logistics execution across the supply chain network, and around the world, with first and last-mile shipment visibility and control over transportation spending. It also improves customer service quality and enhanced vendor relations,” said Pervinder Johar, CEO, Blume Global.
